Racial gaps in age-specific mortality rates by gender and age. Authors’ calculations. Data are from the CDC Compressed Mortality Files (1968–1988). Panel A: Infants aged 0; Panel B: Children aged 1 to 5; Panel C: Adults aged 55 to 64; Panel C: Adults aged 65 to 74. The solid (blue) line represents the difference for males; the red (dotted) line represents the difference for females. Figure reproduced from Alsan and Wanamaker, “Tuskegee and the Health of Black Men” in The journal prefers that all abbreviations and symbols that appear as labels in a figure or any of its parts must be identified in the caption. Please then consider incorporating into the caption brief but concise descriptions of panel labels "a–d" found in Fig. 1.AddressedThe Quarterly Journal of Economics(2018) 133(1):407–455, by permission of Oxford University Press.

It is originally poor, therefore, increasing the resolution will not solve the quality problem. We suggest that you provide us the original format.
